About the author

Hi! My name is Kelli Shallal, MPH RD, I'm a Registered Dietitian and personal trainer based in Phoenix, Arizona. I received my Master's of Public Health from Loma Linda University in 2013 and became an RD shortly after that. Before I became a dietitian, I had NO IDEA how to cook or what healthy food was. In fact, I'd never seen green beans that weren't served in a can until I was 23! (Oh, and did I mention those canned green beans were served boiled with butter and sugar? Thanks to my very southern Grandma for that!)
My mission is to help you achieve a balance between healthy and happy. A healthy lifestyle should include healthy food, fitness, stress management, sleep, treats, participation in social gatherings, and happiness. Balance is a subjective word, but I want to help you find a place where you are enjoying your life but also taking care of your health.
At this point in my career through private practice, my blog, my books, and meal planning service, I've helped thousands of people lose weight, improve their GI health, balance their hormones, and get organized in the kitchen. I can't wait to help you on your healthy living journey too!

What sets this cookbook apart is its practicality; each recipe comes with nutritional information, ensuring you know exactly what you're putting on your plate. The included shopping lists and tips on food storage and reheating make sticking to your goals even easier. "Meal Prep for Weight Loss" not only promotes balanced eating but also encourages a lifestyle shift that fosters long-term success. If you’re ready to take control of your health without spending hours in the kitchen, this book is your ultimate companion for delicious meals that help you feel great and reach your weight loss aspirations!
I love how meal prep is slowly ramped up from one week to the next. If you are cooking for a family, it's easy to double the recipes as well. After a few weeks, you'll be doing major meal prep and it will be like a natural extension of your life. I have a tendency to jump in with bug changes, get overwhelmed and stressed over time. Not with this book. She makes sure to start with baby steps.
The food is also tasty and filling! Calorie wise I've cut back following her meal plans, and I feel satisfied after a meal. Even better, I get hungry after four to 6 hours later. You know, regular mealtimes! I've cut snacking down a ton because o just don't get hunger pangs.
When I first saw the recipes I was tempted to alter some of them but am glad I stuck with it. The yogurt parfaits, one of the first breakfasts you'll make, have almond butter in them. It works so well!!! Very tasty and, I believe, makes it more filling. I'm not a fan of homogeneous yogurt, I like different flavors, so I just drizzle the almond butter on top instead of mixing it it. She also gives advice on how to increase calories or sub out common allergens.
Before each week, there is a shopping list, with amounts needed for each meal prep. The easiest shopping experience ever. No thinking needed.
If you want to save money, eat healthier and get yourself to a healthier weight, I highly recommend this book. Especially if you feel tired and overwhelmed just thinking of how to change your habits, this book takes all the guess work out and the author, being a registered dietitian, puts together very filling, nutritious meals.
So easy to follow. Ingredients that are normal and easy to find. Recipes that my family has loved, so far. So much info on whole food eating and cutting out processed. Definitely worth the purchase!
